The partnership aims to leverage WovenX’s telehealth program to aid Washington’s GI patients on-demand, according to a Nov. 7 press release.
According to the release, research already shows that the partnership has decreased emergency department visits for patients with GI symptoms. Over 97% of visits conducted through the telehealth platform have been deemed appropriate for initial virtual care by supervising gastroenterologists.
By offering on-demand care in an average of less than 30 minutes, the healthcare system and emergency departments will be less burdened with patients, according to the release.
